Description | Anamorelin (ONO-7643, RC-1291, ST-1291) is an orally active, high-affinity, selective agonist of the ghrelin receptor with an EC50 value of 0.74 nM in the HEK293/GRLN FLIPR assay. | ||

In vitro | Anamorelin shows significant agonist and binding activity on the ghrelin receptor, and stimulates growth hormone (GH) release in vitro. Through its ghrelin and GH-releasing activity, anamorelin has both orexigenic and anabolic properties. In the screening for anamorelin activity, 10 μM Anamorelin shows weak binding to the calcium channel L-type receptors, the serotonin transporter, and the sodium channel. Therefore, it exhibits a high selectivity versus ghrelin receptors[2]. By inhibiting nuclear factor κB, anamorelin reduces production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and stops muscle breakdown (inhibits proteolysis)[3]. | ||
In vivo | In rats, Anamorelin significantly and dose-dependently increases food intake and body weight at all dose levels compared with control, and significantly increased growth hormone (GH) levels at 10 or 30 mg/kg doses. Growth hormone and IGF-1 levels increase following anamorelin administration in pigs. Anamorelin is orally active and has a longer half-life (approximately 7 h) than ghrelin. It stimulates neuroendocrine responses and can induce rapid positive effects on appetite and metabolism[2]. Plasma clearance of radiolabelled anamorelin shows that most of the drug is excreted in the feces (92%). Food decreases the area under the curve (AUC) of anamorelin by 4-fold. Metabolism occurs by CYP3A4. In mouse tumor models, such as Lewis lung and human bronchioalveolar carcinoma, anamorelin does not promote tumor growth[3]. |
